Sabrina looked up and smiled at Harry, who gave her a weak smile back.
"Want to go for a walk Harry?" she asked, standing up and stretching. Harry couldn't help staring at her as she did. Ron hid his laughter behind his Transfiguration book.
"Sure. Let's go," Harry told her, ignoring Hermione's furious glares.
They left the common room and started off through the halls, Harry pointing certain things out as they walked. When they reached a lull, he said slowly, "Sabrina, are you from Crystal Waters Institute?"
Sabrina jerked her hand away from his; he had taken it while they were walking, and said, "Yes, yes I am. But Harry-"
He held up a hand to stop her from going on. "Look, it's okay. I don't care where you come from. Just as long as you always stay the way you are now, I'll be satisfied."
Sabrina looked so happy Harry thought she might burst. "Well then," she said, "maybe I should tell you how I really feel about." she trailed off, looking all of a sudden uncomfortable.
"About." he prompted, wondering what she meant.
"About you," Sabrina said softly, "Harry, I- I really have strong feelings for you."
Harry halted. Could it be? Popular, pretty Sabrina had feelings for him? Well then. "What kind of feelings?" he asked, a little suspicious.
"I- Harry, I- Oh, I love you!" she cried. As soon as she said it she turned as scarlet as her cloak.
Harry was wowed. "Sabrina, I love you too," he said, surprised at how easily the words had come out of his mouth. He looked at Sabrina and continued, "You're really something, you know that?"
Apparently she did know, because at that moment Sabrina leaned up and kissed him on the mouth. Harry was shocked as she pushed him up against the cold stone wall, refusing to let go. He had never been kissed before, but he guessed that Sabrina had. This went on for a minute before Hermione's voice resounded through his head: "Ha. Go ask her for yourself. Her answer should stop you from getting too close to her next time you're alone."
Well, this was not quite what Hermione had expected out of Harry, he was sure of that.
Finally Harry realized that he still had to breathe, so he gently pulled away from Sabrina, who stared at him with big brown eyes. She said, "This is the best thing I could wish for. It's all so perfect."
He was a little puzzled by this statement, but didn't question her. It was just as well, because then she went on to say, "Have you ever had a girlfriend, Harry?"
Harry jumped. He had never been asked a question like that before. "No," he told her. "Why?"
Sabrina smiled. "Would you like one? Because I'm here for you. Harry," she said softly, playing with the collar of his robes.
Harry thought about this for a moment. Hermione would be livid. "Of course," he told her, "That would be great." He wished she would kiss him again.
"Wonderful," Sabrina answered, now gently caressing his face, "But what do you say we go somewhere a little more.private." she looked at him through her lashes.
"I think Gryffindor Tower is a lovely place," a voice to their left said.
They both jumped. Albus Dumbledore appeared out of the shadows, looking stern. However, his blue eyes were twinkling behind his half-moon spectacles.
"I suggest that's where you two run along to," he told them, smiling. "And now, if you'll excuse me, I must go find Mr. Filch - I'm afraid Peeves has been up to no good near my office again." And with that, Dumbledore swept away down the corridor.
"Well," said Sabrina, "at least he's not mad."
Harry nodded and they set off for the common room. He put his arm around Sabrina as they walked, and she leaned against him, apparently tired. When they stepped into the common room they found Ron still studying, but Hermione was gone.
"Where's Hermione?" Harry asked Ron, while Sabrina continued to lean against him.
Ron yawned. "Bed," he said, "and I think I'll do the same." He slowly walked up the stairs to the boys' dormitories.
